I’m failing miserably at my New Year’s Goals.

Set monthly goals–Failure (mostly)
Be more organized person–Failure
Love my family–Working on it.
Be grateful–Needing much improvement.
Be creative–Sigh.

I have lots of work to do! Though I’ve exercised a ton more this year, yeah me! But I have a lot of work to go in every other area…AND I’m already 5/12 of the way through the year!!! EEK!!!

May Goals:
1. Exercise Regularly. 8 skips allowed this month. Any more than that, each skipped day is $5 a day paid to my sister.
2. Thursday To-Do Lists.
3. Organize my work area & binder.
4. Sort thru Pierson’s clothes, etc.

Here’s my Thursday’s To-Do list. By next Thursday I plan to do the following 10 things.
1. Write a letter to my grandma.
2. Find 20 things to donate.
3. Organize & Buy for Operation Gift.
4. Plan a 30 second spiel.
5. Mail game to recipients.
6. Write and send thank yous.
7. Send Sterling money for 2 days exercise skipping.
8. Make Cookies or Bread as a thank you to a couple friends.
9. Put two items on craigslist.
10. Take items to thrift store for donation.

9 out of 10–Not bad!

Resolution Rehash

Here’s my FAIL PROOF EXERCISE PLAN that worked wonders for me last month!!!

• My mom was my accountability partner.
• We set a goal to exercise every day with 3 skips.
• If one of us missed after our allotted skips, we had to drop $5 bucks in the mail to the other person, no questions asked. Being EL CHEAPO, I wasn’t about to have to give up my moolah!!!

It worked perfectly! We’re modifying it again for the month of February, though this time we’re adding some eating goals, too. It’s discouraging to exercise all month and not see results… cough…cough…because one eats as if all food on earth is expected to suddenly vanish. Been there. Done that.
